Chapter 1483 Adopted Daughter 19
Yuanchun was watching the live video of the Yan couple while eating rice happily. There were two meat dishes, one vegetable dish and a soup on the table: chicken stewed with potatoes, steamed meatballs, lettuce with oyster sauce, and oxtail soup.
Everything was served on six-inch small plates, and each dish was not much, just enough for her to eat.
Seeing Hong Xiaoping's distraught expression when she found out that her money was lost, Yuanchun felt that it was more refreshing than drinking oxtail soup.
But Yan Jun refused to let her call the police and chose to conceal the truth, which surprised her a little. However, thinking of Yan Jun's job and high salary, she seemed to understand his actions.
After all, the money was lost and could not be recovered, so why should he ruin his reputation even more and risk losing his job just for the money?
His maintenance skills are quite good, but if the machinery factory really wants to find someone, it is not impossible to find someone with better maintenance skills than him. So if he makes a small mistake, Director Ma may turn a blind eye and give him a little punishment. But once he is accused of embezzling money from the children of martyrs, then no matter how good his maintenance skills are, the machinery factory will no longer keep him.
Spending the money of martyrs' children and embezzling the money of martyrs' children are different crimes.
"Host, that Yan Jun is a sinister villain, and Hong Xiaoping is a knife in his hand. He obviously wants to covet the Song family's money and house, but she used words to lure Hong Xiaoping to take the original owner's money."
In the previous life, a few years later, when Yan Xiaoyang was talking about marriage, Hong Xiaoping would force the original owner to transfer the house to Yan Jun's name, using the excuse that the house did not belong to the Yan family and her daughter-in-law would feel uncomfortable living in it.
After the house was transferred, Hong Xiaoping abused her even more unscrupulously.
"Didn't I get my money back with interest?"
After eating and drinking, Yuanchun threw all the dishes into the automatic dishwasher in the space to wash them. She also went into the space and took a nice bath.
Lying on the bed, Yuanchun turned on the Yan family's live video to pass the time.
Yan Xiaomei and Yan Xiaohui had no more school to go to, so they were sent by Mrs. Yan to pick mushrooms on the mountain outside the county town. However, the brother and sister played at the foot of the mountain all day.
The sun was about to set when the brother and sister remembered to go home. However, seeing their empty basket, they were afraid of being beaten, so they spent five cents to buy a handful of mushrooms and half a basket of wild vegetables from a village woman's basket.
The brother and sister returned home and handed over their findings to Granny Yan.
Granny Yan complained that it was too little and cursed, "You eat everything and nothing is left. You can't do anything well. You only make this little stuff all day. Who will eat it?"
"Hmph, don't think that I'm easy to fool just because I'm old. You must be lazy. Don't eat dinner. Save a few bites to feed the chickens. The chickens can give me an egg in return to feed you. But it's like throwing meat buns at a dog. It's a one-way trip."
When she heard that she was going to starve, Yan Xiaomei got anxious and said in defense, "Grandma, my second brother and I are not lazy. It just hasn't rained in the past few days, so there are not many mushrooms to pick in the mountains."
"Bah, who hasn't picked mushrooms before? You're a fool to lie to an old man like me. Then I'll lock you up for another day and not let you eat." Mother Yan reached out and pinched the tender flesh under Yan Xiaomei's armpit a few times.
Yan Xiaomei burst into tears from the pain, "Grandma, please don't hit me. I was wrong. I won't do it again next time."
"Do you want another time?"
"No, there won't be a next time, grandma, I will never be lazy again, please let me go this time, don't hit me, don't deprive me of food, wuwu, I'm afraid of being hungry, grandma, I beg you." No matter how Yan Xiaomei cried and begged, Grandma Yan was not soft-hearted and did not let her and Yan Xiaohui eat at night.
Ten-year-old Yan Xiaowu came out with a bowl of sweet potato rice. Seeing the brother and sister standing in the middle of the yard looking into the house pitifully, he said smugly, "Bah, you deserve to be hungry. Who told you not to work hard and still dare to be lazy?"
"Look, this is the mushroom you brought back. Grandma fried three eggs with it, and I got a big piece."
He picked up the egg and showed off in front of the two of them, "It's delicious. The eggs fried with milk are especially fragrant today. Hehe, it's a pity that you can't have it. Are you greedy? Hahaha, I'm going to make you greedy to death."
Yan Xiaowu is the youngest son of the eldest son of the Yan family and the youngest grandson of Mrs. Yan. He was raised by Mrs. Yan and is especially favored.
The child is spoiled. At ten years old, even dogs find him troublesome. He looks at everything in a way that makes people angry. His words can make people angry to death.
Yan Xiaohui stared at him with an unpleasant expression, "Yan Xiaowu, just wait for me."
"Grandma, Third Brother threatened me and wanted to beat me to death."
Yan Xiaowu shouted into the house.
Granny Yan roared, "Yan Xiaohui, you're itching to bully your brother."
"Old Third, how do you educate your child? How can a grown man bully his younger brother? How can that be?" Granny Yan looked at Yan Jun with dissatisfaction. "He's already an adult at sixteen, but he dares to be lazy when you ask him to dig some wild vegetables. You should educate him well later, or he'll become a second-rate person."
Old Master Yan said, "Third brother, the director of the street office came to inform our family two days ago that we have so many children, so we must send two of them to the countryside. Why not let Xiaohui go?"
Yan Jun stared at him in disbelief. "Brother, the neighborhood office is here to inform Xiaowen and Xiaorui that they are about to graduate from high school. The neighborhood office is waiting for them to get their diplomas and go to the countryside."
"Xiao Rui is dating someone and they will get married after graduation. Let Xiao Hui go in his place." said Granny Yan.
Yan Jun firmly disagreed, "No, Xiaohui is only sixteen years old and hasn't graduated from high school yet."
"School doesn't allow him to go to school anymore, what can he do at home?" Granny Yan said, "He is a boy, and working in the fields in the countryside can help him get rid of his lazy bones. Let him go with Xiaowen. Xiaorui is a girl, she doesn't have much strength, and going to the countryside will only cause trouble for others."
Yan Jun stood up angrily, with a trace of sadness on his face, "Mom, just be partial to my eldest brother's family. Anyway, I will not let Xiaohui replace Xiaorui to go to the countryside. I have already found a job for Xiaohui."
"If there is a job, let Xiaorui go to work, and I will ask your elder brother to compensate Xiaohui."
Boss Yan continued, "Third brother, have you really found a job for Xiaohui?"
"Uncle San, what kind of job is this?" Yan Xiaorui asked anxiously.
Yan Jun had a blank expression on his face. "I'm just looking for one. I haven't found one yet. Even if I did, I wouldn't give you the job. Xiaorui, go to the countryside when you need to. Don't just take advantage of good things and push them away when bad things happen. Xiaohui is not your biological brother. He has no obligation to go to the countryside on your behalf."
"Uncle San, I don't want to either, but... I'm scared when I think about going to the countryside. I heard that some female educated youth were persecuted in the village. I'm afraid that I'll never come back and never see you again. It's safer for boys to go to the countryside than girls. Uncle San, please agree to our request."
